No further price cuts for Proton

Proton Edar Sdn Bhd’s CEO Datuk Maruan Mohd Said said to the media yesterday that there will be no further price reductions for Proton cars, despite rumours that there will be a second round of price reductions.

There are rumours going around of a second price reduction around September to October. Some variations of the rumour say it will affect local cars, and some say it will affect all cars. I don’t see what could cause a second round of price reductions though, so these are likely just baseless rumours.
